Video: Tom Brady, Bill O’Brien Fight on Patriots Sideline
Tom Brady threw a red zone interception with six minutes to go against the Redskins on Sunday, giving Washington a chance to tie the game late instead of ending the drive with a 14-point lead.

Connelly’s Top Ten: Patriots Make Kansas City Look Like Chief Wild Eagle
1. OFFENSE * Brady looked grumpy again even after sniffing ammonia before kickoff (that doesn’t look good – NFL should put an end to that in public). * Any mere mortal would have broke their neck if they took the same fall that Gronkowski did on his second touchdown. * Trying to get Wes Welker [...]
ESPN Sports Nation Bet On Patriots-Jets Game Controls I-91 Billboard
Patriots and Jets is synonymous with the word rivalry. The personnel switching from entity to entity over the years (and in some cases switching back…again) make this feud that much more compelling.

Rex Ryan to Play Patriots Fan in Adam Sandler Movie “Donny Boy”
If I say “Adam Sandler movies,” what comes to mind? Billy Madison? Happy Gilmore? Waterboy? The Wedding Singer? Big Daddy? Many of these movies were hilarious. But, the other common attribute these movies share is that they were released in the 90′s. All of them. Notable movies since? Little Nicky (ugh). Mr. Deeds (meh). The [...]

Which Boston Team do you Want to Win a Championship the Most?
It’s a known fact, but I’ll say it again–we the Boston sports fans have spent the past ten years swimming in championships and parades. Of course if it was up to any Boston sports fan, each of Boston’s four teams would win the championships every year. But what if you could only pick one? Which [...]
Which Team is Better Operated: Red Sox or Patriots?
As the Red Sox continue their plunge into chaos and ruin on the likes of which a team can never recover (emphasis on never), the Patriots appear to be cruising along to another playoff run. I can’t help but compare them. Two months ago, if you asked the experts to name some of the model [...]

“This year I’m going to try to be the black Wes Welker,” Nate Burleson told the NFL Network earlier this week. “I’m going to get as many catches in that slot or on the outside opposite Calvin because he’s going to attract a lot of attention all year.” Well, at least he’s not actually gonna [...]
